Teaser Tuesday

"A tremble in her knees warned Pete that she was losing too much blood, and she saw her wrist was still pumping. 'Bugger all.' "

I'm on page 176 and so far, have not been disappointed in reading this novel. Lucky for me, I won the second in the series from a giveaway by Karen Mahoney (who had a short story in Eternal Kiss, and will be coming out with a book called Iron Witch - in the process now)

This sounds very exciting. Love fast-paced. I hope the rest of the book continues to be a good read.

I also wanted to respond to a question you asked about Out of My Mind by Sharon Draper.You asked if I thought this was a good book for middle school grades and I unequivocally say YES! This is a great book for sending a message that making judgments based on the way someone looks is wrong and hurtful, and when we do this we often miss out on getting to know someone truly amazing. I really can't say enough about the book and I will be recommending it as one of the next Book Battle books for next year.

About Me

I work in a K-8th grade library as a library tech (just one of my jobs). I love working with books, almost as much as I love working with children - sometimes more!
I'm part spanish (Panama)part scottish with mixture of other countries thrown in, born in US. Getting a little older, a little wiser and a little crankier.Two grandchildren, four children, one husband (lol- isn't ONE enough?) two dogs and a cat. I love to read, I love to find new books (new to me), and I'm a little obsessive about buying books. I buy them faster than I can read them. I also love to garden, though it's much harder for me to do so now. I still enjoy having a small flower garden.
